WEBVTT 1 00:00:19.555 --> 00:00:24.455 Hey, everyone. It's Rick. In this episode, we're talking about hearing 2 00:00:24.914 --> 00:00:25.895 God's voice 3 00:00:26.830 --> 00:00:29.010 at night in your dreams. 4 00:00:29.630 --> 00:00:35.330 It's like we should be hearing God's voice and having him talk to us day and night. 5 00:00:35.390 --> 00:00:37.650 So I wanna start with a story of mine. 6 00:00:37.790 --> 00:00:42.210 And that's I was, I don't know, couple years old old in the Lord. 7 00:00:42.595 --> 00:00:49.655 And I was doing this thing where I would spend an hour every day and I kinda had a a ritual and a list and you know, sort of the old way of praying 8 00:00:50.195 --> 00:00:58.290 but I was about to start on that one day and was down on my knees and all of a sudden, the lord talked to me really clearly and he said, we're not doing that today. 9 00:00:58.610 --> 00:01:00.150 That should have told me something. 10 00:01:00.530 --> 00:01:06.790 But he says I got something I want to talk to you about. And I said okay Lord. And I just shut up. 11 00:01:07.170 --> 00:01:07.670 And 12 00:01:08.050 --> 00:01:10.870 he started talking to me about dreams. 13 00:01:11.650 --> 00:01:12.150 Dreams 14 00:01:12.915 --> 00:01:13.415 and 15 00:01:13.955 --> 00:01:16.135 just him talking to us 16 00:01:16.435 --> 00:01:17.335 through dreams. 17 00:01:18.355 --> 00:01:23.095 And he started telling me as well that he was gonna continue to teach me about dreams. 18 00:01:23.475 --> 00:01:29.720 And he brought up verses in the Bible and reminded me of verses that I already knew and stuff like that. 19 00:01:29.780 --> 00:01:31.720 And it was just so fascinating 20 00:01:32.100 --> 00:01:33.320 to listen to God 21 00:01:33.939 --> 00:01:40.039 explain to me how dreams work and why they work the way they do and how he talks to us with dreams. 22 00:01:40.505 --> 00:01:46.345 Well, ever since then, he's been teaching me more and more about dreams, but also talking to me with dreams. 23 00:01:46.345 --> 00:01:47.884 It's just a regular 24 00:01:48.345 --> 00:01:50.284 normal thing. And I think that's 25 00:01:50.744 --> 00:01:51.244 what 26 00:01:52.505 --> 00:01:53.325 that's what 27 00:01:54.020 --> 00:01:54.759 the biggest 28 00:01:55.299 --> 00:01:56.840 thing I got out of that 29 00:01:57.460 --> 00:01:59.719 one hour that got a ton, 30 00:02:00.180 --> 00:02:02.200 but is that it should be normal. 31 00:02:03.060 --> 00:02:03.560 God 32 00:02:03.860 --> 00:02:05.000 created communication. 33 00:02:05.780 --> 00:02:06.759 We're his children. 34 00:02:07.355 --> 00:02:08.895 He wants to speak to us 35 00:02:09.275 --> 00:02:10.895 all the time, 20 fourseven. 36 00:02:11.275 --> 00:02:15.675 Sometimes we feel like we're wrestling to hear God's voice. I really wanna hear God's voice. 37 00:02:15.675 --> 00:02:18.895 God's not talking to me. What do you do? You hear God's voice. 38 00:02:19.435 --> 00:02:19.935 And 39 00:02:20.235 --> 00:02:21.215 we have this 40 00:02:22.220 --> 00:02:25.360 thought, this preconceived thought, which damages our faith, 41 00:02:25.739 --> 00:02:30.159 which is that somehow we're not hearing or somehow God's not talking to us. 42 00:02:30.220 --> 00:02:31.920 And we need to switch that. 43 00:02:32.220 --> 00:02:35.200 So I'm gonna be doing that over the next couple of episodes 44 00:02:35.579 --> 00:02:36.079 on 45 00:02:36.379 --> 00:02:37.995 dreams. Here's the 46 00:02:38.295 --> 00:02:38.795 thing. 47 00:02:40.535 --> 00:02:45.581 We are called to a conversation with God and God says that we should pray you, 48 00:02:47.895 --> 00:02:48.715 which means 49 00:02:49.650 --> 00:02:51.990 father wants to speak to us continuously. 50 00:02:52.370 --> 00:02:57.090 Now that does that mean that we sit down all day and just have a conversation with god like it did for the hour? 51 00:02:57.090 --> 00:02:58.710 No, it doesn't mean that. 52 00:02:58.850 --> 00:03:03.350 Sometimes he's speaking to us just by being one spirit with us through his holy spirit. 53 00:03:03.795 --> 00:03:07.974 Sometimes he's stopping us and he's and he's he's giving us some direction. 54 00:03:08.194 --> 00:03:13.174 We like the Bible says in the book of Isaiah that with our teacher will hear our teacher 55 00:03:13.635 --> 00:03:15.575 who won't hide himself from us anymore 56 00:03:16.290 --> 00:03:18.069 speaking to us from behind saying, 57 00:03:18.450 --> 00:03:23.730 go this way, go left, go right. He wants to be communicating with us on a regular basis. 58 00:03:23.730 --> 00:03:24.550 And obviously, 59 00:03:25.090 --> 00:03:28.390 he created life. He wants to partner with us in life. 60 00:03:28.555 --> 00:03:32.335 And that's why He wants us to communicate with Him continuously. 61 00:03:33.035 --> 00:03:36.975 Now, of course, that's gonna mean in dreams. So let's look at Acts 62 00:03:37.515 --> 00:03:38.655 two fifteen-eighteen. 63 00:03:39.995 --> 00:03:40.735 This is 64 00:03:41.630 --> 00:03:44.770 the re what's recorded about what Peter said 65 00:03:45.310 --> 00:03:45.810 when 66 00:03:46.190 --> 00:03:47.230 Pentecost happened. 67 00:03:47.230 --> 00:03:54.290 And the spirit of God got poured out in a big way, and everybody came running to find out what was going on. 68 00:03:54.555 --> 00:03:55.295 So let's, 69 00:03:56.395 --> 00:04:00.975 and somebody said in the verse before this, somebody said, well, they must be drunk. 70 00:04:01.755 --> 00:04:06.175 Well, there's a reason for somebody saying that there must be they must be drunk 71 00:04:06.660 --> 00:04:10.200 because they were obviously acting in that kind of a way. 72 00:04:10.660 --> 00:04:11.160 So, 73 00:04:11.540 --> 00:04:15.720 verse 15, for these people are not drunk as you suppose 74 00:04:16.180 --> 00:04:21.875 since it's only nine in the morning. Now, why was, why was, why was he saying that? 75 00:04:21.875 --> 00:04:25.975 Why were they seeing this? Because this was the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. You gotta remember, 76 00:04:26.355 --> 00:04:31.255 the context is the Old Testament. The context is all the stories that the Israelites knew. 77 00:04:32.195 --> 00:04:35.895 Saul being, you know, hit when he was first became a king. 78 00:04:36.460 --> 00:04:40.960 Being hit by the spirit of God and not being able to get up lying down and prophesying. 79 00:04:41.060 --> 00:04:44.080 I mean the stories of David getting 80 00:04:44.460 --> 00:04:48.320 the anointing and the spirit of God coming on him and him going and killing Goliath. 81 00:04:48.975 --> 00:04:55.155 The stories that of Samson where it says that the spirit of God rushed on him and one man took on an army. 82 00:04:55.294 --> 00:04:57.555 I mean, this is all the way through the Old Testament. 83 00:04:57.935 --> 00:05:00.115 So this was God's way of testifying 84 00:05:00.415 --> 00:05:03.395 that this is the Holy Spirit being poured out. 85 00:05:04.030 --> 00:05:07.330 When we see it in context, we see why that was necessary 86 00:05:07.870 --> 00:05:10.990 for them to kind of lose their bearing for a little bit. 87 00:05:10.990 --> 00:05:14.510 Maybe some of them weren't able to stand up. We're not sure exactly what happened. 88 00:05:14.510 --> 00:05:19.810 It doesn't describe it. But there's a connection here with the Old Testament that we have to see. 89 00:05:20.135 --> 00:05:21.035 Verse 16, 90 00:05:21.815 --> 00:05:22.795 On the contrary, 91 00:05:23.335 --> 00:05:26.075 this is what is spoken through the prophet Joel, 92 00:05:26.615 --> 00:05:36.850 and it will be, and now he quotes the prophet Joel, and prophet Joel was talking about what happens when the spirit was poured out, And it will be in the last days, says God, 93 00:05:37.230 --> 00:05:43.330 that I will pour out my spirit on all humanity. Some versions say all flesh. 94 00:05:43.870 --> 00:05:44.690 Are you part 95 00:05:45.604 --> 00:05:48.425 are you part of all flesh? You you part of all humanity? 96 00:05:49.604 --> 00:05:50.665 This right here, 97 00:05:51.044 --> 00:05:55.384 for all of the people of Israel, all the Jews that were listening to Peter, was 98 00:05:56.324 --> 00:05:57.145 hard to believe 99 00:05:57.900 --> 00:06:06.400 because only the kings, only the prophets, only the special people, only the Samsons and the Davids and stuff like that had the spirit of God. 100 00:06:07.020 --> 00:06:08.480 And all of a sudden now 101 00:06:09.020 --> 00:06:12.620 there's this prophecy that Peter's quoting and saying, this has happened. 102 00:06:12.620 --> 00:06:16.720 It's not just for special people anymore. It's for all you. 103 00:06:17.585 --> 00:06:19.284 And this is this 104 00:06:19.824 --> 00:06:23.745 this message right here would start blowing the minds of the people that were listening. 105 00:06:23.745 --> 00:06:24.805 Definitely caught 106 00:06:25.264 --> 00:06:26.724 not only was the drunkenness 107 00:06:27.139 --> 00:06:29.400 or seeming drunkenness catching their attention, 108 00:06:29.860 --> 00:06:31.320 but this claim 109 00:06:32.740 --> 00:06:36.760 was wild. It would be catching their attention. What what what do you mean? 110 00:06:36.820 --> 00:06:39.880 They're listening to Peter at this particular point. And so 111 00:06:40.715 --> 00:06:42.255 Joel gives an example 112 00:06:42.955 --> 00:06:48.315 of or goes on to show what all humanity means. And sometimes we misunderstand this. 113 00:06:48.315 --> 00:06:51.215 Then your sons and your daughters will prophesy. 114 00:06:52.510 --> 00:06:55.970 Your young men will see visions and your old men will dream dreams. 115 00:06:56.190 --> 00:06:58.910 So right away, some of you will go, well, dream dreams. 116 00:06:59.230 --> 00:07:02.530 Rick, I'm out, I'm not an old man, I'm not even a man, 117 00:07:02.910 --> 00:07:04.050 I'm a young woman. 118 00:07:04.750 --> 00:07:05.890 We get this wrong. 119 00:07:06.544 --> 00:07:10.324 His point was, in context, and the prophecy was about 120 00:07:10.865 --> 00:07:11.365 see, 121 00:07:13.985 --> 00:07:15.044 in that context, 122 00:07:15.585 --> 00:07:18.564 it was the kings who had the Holy Spirit. It was 123 00:07:18.944 --> 00:07:19.604 the warriors, 124 00:07:20.064 --> 00:07:21.960 the judges that had the Holy Spirit. 125 00:07:22.199 --> 00:07:26.460 It was the special people, the leaders of Israel that had the holy spirit. 126 00:07:26.840 --> 00:07:29.979 So what's happening here is is the the prophet 127 00:07:30.360 --> 00:07:30.860 Peter, 128 00:07:31.560 --> 00:07:33.020 the apostle Peter, 129 00:07:33.400 --> 00:07:33.900 is 130 00:07:34.215 --> 00:07:36.295 contrasting that just like Joel was doing. 131 00:07:36.295 --> 00:07:39.575 He's saying, then you even your sons and your daughters will prophesy. 132 00:07:39.575 --> 00:07:44.075 In other words, your your kids will have the spirit of god on them and they'll prophesy. 133 00:07:44.615 --> 00:07:48.930 Your your young men will see visions. He's not dividing up who gets 134 00:07:50.030 --> 00:07:53.470 what. That's not in this verse. He's saying even your young men, young men. 135 00:07:53.470 --> 00:07:59.169 In other words, the the ones that weren't fully mature adults yet that have been accepted as men in society. 136 00:07:59.230 --> 00:08:01.330 Even your young men will see visions 137 00:08:01.630 --> 00:08:06.205 and your old men, the ones, I mean, back the the the high priest, 138 00:08:06.745 --> 00:08:11.705 the high priest and the priests were only allowed to minister before god for a certain period of time. 139 00:08:11.705 --> 00:08:14.925 When they got to a certain age, they weren't allowed to anymore. 140 00:08:15.360 --> 00:08:20.900 And, you know, the old men that were priests and that were ministers were kind of sidelined. 141 00:08:21.600 --> 00:08:24.080 And so he's saying, no, no, that's not gonna happen anymore. 142 00:08:24.080 --> 00:08:26.740 Your young men will see visions and even 143 00:08:27.280 --> 00:08:29.940 and your old men will dream dreams. 144 00:08:30.505 --> 00:08:33.165 I will even and this emphasizes this point. 145 00:08:33.304 --> 00:08:41.085 I will even pour out my spirit on my male and female slaves or servants, as some translations say it, and I like that better. 146 00:08:41.225 --> 00:08:43.245 In those days, and they will prophesy. 147 00:08:44.459 --> 00:08:51.200 In other words, he's saying even your those people that you employ, those people that work for you out in the fields, those 148 00:08:51.580 --> 00:08:53.760 those people that you don't think 149 00:08:54.140 --> 00:08:55.360 would be a David 150 00:08:55.980 --> 00:08:58.240 or a Saul or a Samson, 151 00:08:58.944 --> 00:09:04.485 all of those people will be filled with the Spirit of God. So what he's saying here is that prophecy 152 00:09:05.185 --> 00:09:06.004 and visions 153 00:09:06.545 --> 00:09:07.365 and dreams 154 00:09:08.225 --> 00:09:08.725 are 155 00:09:09.504 --> 00:09:10.004 normal. 156 00:09:12.640 --> 00:09:14.100 God created dreams. 157 00:09:15.040 --> 00:09:19.440 So it's not old men will dream dreams. It's saying even old men will dream dreams. 158 00:09:19.440 --> 00:09:23.540 Everyone, if you're here right now and you're listening to me, live or afterwards, 159 00:09:24.400 --> 00:09:26.660 God is saying to you, no, you 160 00:09:27.065 --> 00:09:28.605 will get dreams from me. 161 00:09:29.305 --> 00:09:32.204 This is a normal way of God speaking. We've elevated 162 00:09:32.505 --> 00:09:37.565 this idea of getting dreams from God to the point where we're not expecting it. 163 00:09:38.024 --> 00:09:38.765 And we 164 00:09:39.545 --> 00:09:40.584 need to expect it. 165 00:09:40.584 --> 00:09:46.389 I mean, look at many, again, many big biblical figures like I was talking about David and Solomon 166 00:09:46.690 --> 00:09:48.550 had a range of encounters. Abraham 167 00:09:49.250 --> 00:09:52.870 heard the audible voice of God. He had angelic visit visitations. 168 00:09:53.490 --> 00:09:54.949 He had deep sleep visions. 169 00:09:55.395 --> 00:10:00.775 Jacob had dreams, angel encounters, wrestling with God. Daniel had dreams, visions, angelic 170 00:10:01.475 --> 00:10:01.975 interpretation. 171 00:10:02.595 --> 00:10:05.895 Joseph and Mary had angelic appearances, dreams. 172 00:10:06.435 --> 00:10:08.899 Paul hearing God's voice, Jesus appearances, 173 00:10:09.279 --> 00:10:11.459 Holy Spirit leading, visions, dreams. 174 00:10:11.839 --> 00:10:15.860 And we look at all of those people and we've got to change this mindset. 175 00:10:16.240 --> 00:10:19.540 We look at all those people and we say, Well, yeah, Rick, they were special. 176 00:10:19.760 --> 00:10:22.100 We've got to get our brain out of the Old Testament. 177 00:10:23.495 --> 00:10:27.835 The Holy Spirit now in the New Testament is poured out upon all flesh. 178 00:10:28.055 --> 00:10:30.395 It's for all of us to experience. 179 00:10:31.175 --> 00:10:33.835 God created dreams. He created communication. 180 00:10:34.215 --> 00:10:35.595 He wants you to pray 181 00:10:36.120 --> 00:10:38.600 you, and he wants to speak to you continuously, 182 00:10:39.380 --> 00:10:39.880 including 183 00:10:40.580 --> 00:10:41.320 at night. 184 00:10:42.420 --> 00:10:44.840 All humanity or all flesh. 185 00:10:47.780 --> 00:10:52.175 And in the Old Testament, these were all just types. Like the Bible says that they 186 00:10:52.555 --> 00:10:53.535 were end samples 187 00:10:54.235 --> 00:10:59.055 to us who the end of the ages have come upon. In other words, us in Christ. 188 00:10:59.355 --> 00:11:03.134 They were just examples of us because we're supposed to be going beyond that. 189 00:11:03.290 --> 00:11:06.570 And you go, Rick, I I don't know. You might have pushed me out of my comfort zone there. 190 00:11:06.570 --> 00:11:07.470 Let's look at 191 00:11:07.850 --> 00:11:10.910 Zechariah twelve eight. I love this verse. 192 00:11:11.450 --> 00:11:15.790 On that day, talking about us in Christ, talking about the day of Christians. 193 00:11:15.930 --> 00:11:21.315 This is go and read the context yourself. That's what this is talking about. Zechariah twelve eight. 194 00:11:21.615 --> 00:11:25.475 On that day, the Lord will protect the inhabitants of Jerusalem. 195 00:11:25.855 --> 00:11:30.110 He's talking about Zion there. So we're we're we're Zion. 196 00:11:30.110 --> 00:11:34.370 We've been grafted in the inhabitants of Zion. So that the feeblest 197 00:11:34.910 --> 00:11:38.290 among them on that day shall be like David. 198 00:11:38.750 --> 00:11:41.490 Jesus talked about this when he said, John 199 00:11:42.030 --> 00:11:42.530 is 200 00:11:44.365 --> 00:11:51.825 the greatest of all the prophets that have spoken, yet the person who's the least in the kingdom of God will be greater than him. 201 00:11:52.125 --> 00:11:57.730 Jesus said that you'll do the works that I did and even greater works. Well, this goes right right. 202 00:11:57.870 --> 00:12:08.290 What he's talking about there, what all these verses are talking about is that the spirit of God, once Jesus paid the price for our sins, the spirit of God comes upon all flesh. 203 00:12:08.625 --> 00:12:12.705 Once you receive Jesus Christ and you have his spirit, you're filled with his spirit. 204 00:12:12.705 --> 00:12:15.765 The Bible says we're supposed to be filled and constantly filled. 205 00:12:15.905 --> 00:12:20.225 So, he says, the feeblest among them on that day shall be like David. 206 00:12:20.225 --> 00:12:22.805 So, all of those people we talk about in the Old Testament, 207 00:12:23.199 --> 00:12:25.060 we're supposed to surpass them. 208 00:12:25.600 --> 00:12:34.019 So the dreams that Jacob had, the dreams that Joseph had, the dreams that that Abraham had, the dreams that's just that's just a taste 209 00:12:34.480 --> 00:12:37.335 of what we can do. And and god has spoken to me 210 00:12:37.815 --> 00:12:38.955 so many times 211 00:12:39.335 --> 00:12:46.075 in dreams so clearly and given me revelation and shown me places in his word and appeared to me in dreams. 212 00:12:46.215 --> 00:12:50.875 And it's just been a really, really exciting journey since that conversation. 213 00:12:51.495 --> 00:12:51.995 Why? 214 00:12:52.320 --> 00:12:54.260 And this is my message for today. 215 00:12:55.200 --> 00:12:55.700 God 216 00:12:56.080 --> 00:13:00.900 wants to speak to you clearly in every way he can in a conversational 217 00:13:01.280 --> 00:13:08.295 way. He wants that kind of close relationship with you, and he wants to speak to you at night. 218 00:13:08.295 --> 00:13:13.654 In the night seasons as the Bible says. Now some of you are going to say well you know Rick 219 00:13:14.615 --> 00:13:18.375 you obviously haven't heard about my dreams. I have some pretty weird dreams. 220 00:13:18.375 --> 00:13:20.314 And maybe even some scary dreams. 221 00:13:20.615 --> 00:13:23.930 Well one of the things god talked to me about in that hour 222 00:13:24.410 --> 00:13:29.370 I didn't finish the story. It's funny. The yeah. I was trying to pray for an hour. 223 00:13:29.370 --> 00:13:32.250 And right at the beginning, the lord said, you know, I'll have a no. 224 00:13:32.250 --> 00:13:35.470 You're not doing we're not doing that. I got something to talk to you about. 225 00:13:35.615 --> 00:13:40.095 And he talked to me, and I didn't realize a whole hour had gone past. And he says, okay. 226 00:13:40.095 --> 00:13:43.535 That's the end of the conversation. You can go now. And I looked up. 227 00:13:43.535 --> 00:13:47.394 I got such a religious habit of just, you know, praying exactly an hour. 228 00:13:47.454 --> 00:13:56.840 I look at up at the clock after hearing god talk for that I didn't know how long it was, thinking, well, I still gotta spend some more time praying because I haven't done the hour yet. 229 00:14:00.260 --> 00:14:06.995 But god knew, and it was exactly one hour that he was that he had that conversation with me. 230 00:14:07.215 --> 00:14:11.055 So dreams are part of life. That's what he told me. He said he created dreams. 231 00:14:11.055 --> 00:14:12.915 It's part of our filing system. 232 00:14:13.295 --> 00:14:16.095 And I thought that was really cool, and he explained that more to me. 233 00:14:16.095 --> 00:14:20.610 And he says, but what happens so that not all your dreams are messages from god. 234 00:14:20.769 --> 00:14:23.410 But what happens is god interrupts your dreams. 235 00:14:23.410 --> 00:14:27.750 The spirit of god who's one flesh with you has been poured out. He's one spirit with you. 236 00:14:28.370 --> 00:14:28.870 He 237 00:14:29.890 --> 00:14:36.375 interrupts your dream and brings you a message from the father, a message from Jesus, a message from the Holy Spirit. 238 00:14:36.855 --> 00:14:40.715 So they're not always from God. And matter of fact, for the most part, even myself, 239 00:14:42.235 --> 00:14:46.475 you know, most of your dreams are just, you know, your your filing system working. 240 00:14:47.095 --> 00:14:47.595 So 241 00:14:48.855 --> 00:14:55.290 what you need to do now that you've heard this message and heard how easy this is for God to speak to you in dreams, 242 00:14:55.750 --> 00:14:57.209 you need to ask him 243 00:14:57.510 --> 00:14:59.209 to, a, give you dreams, 244 00:14:59.670 --> 00:15:00.410 and, b, 245 00:15:00.870 --> 00:15:02.170 speak to you plainly. 246 00:15:02.550 --> 00:15:05.050 Remember we talked about this in an earlier episode. 247 00:15:05.350 --> 00:15:10.584 John sixteen twenty five, Jesus said, I have spoken, he's talking to the disciples and us. 248 00:15:10.964 --> 00:15:14.264 I have spoken these things to you in figures of speech. 249 00:15:14.885 --> 00:15:18.824 A time is coming when I will no longer speak to you in figures, 250 00:15:19.125 --> 00:15:22.824 but I will tell you plainly about the father. 251 00:15:25.590 --> 00:15:30.070 So when you get dreams and you're wondering, is that dream from God? 252 00:15:30.070 --> 00:15:36.230 And probably a lot of you, and I've encountered a lot of people who said, I think I had a dream from God once because it's always stuck with me. 253 00:15:36.230 --> 00:15:37.365 And it was this. 254 00:15:37.605 --> 00:15:44.105 And usually when that happens, I actually, God gives me the interpretation for the dream, which is really cool and it blesses them. 255 00:15:44.165 --> 00:15:48.825 But we don't have to wait for someone else to interpret it. We can learn how to do that ourselves 256 00:15:49.285 --> 00:15:50.425 by just asking 257 00:15:51.310 --> 00:15:51.810 Jesus 258 00:15:52.190 --> 00:15:53.569 for the dream, a, 259 00:15:54.190 --> 00:15:55.410 and then, b, 260 00:15:56.190 --> 00:16:01.089 ask him to speak to us plainly about it. So dreams tend to be metaphor, 261 00:16:01.870 --> 00:16:05.810 but just because it's a metaphor or a parable doesn't mean 262 00:16:06.615 --> 00:16:09.675 it god's not gonna speak to you plainly about it. You don't have to puzzle. 263 00:16:10.055 --> 00:16:14.055 You can ask him for the keys to the dream. Like, well, what does that mean? 264 00:16:14.055 --> 00:16:17.035 What does that parable mean? What does that metaphor mean? 265 00:16:17.255 --> 00:16:22.020 And he will talk to you and show what it means. And why would he do this with dreams 266 00:16:22.640 --> 00:16:26.899 as opposed to just telling you about it? Well, the thing is is the dreams come with pictures, 267 00:16:27.760 --> 00:16:39.175 and they tend to be more long lasting, and they're easier to write down, and they're easier to for us to hear from really clearly with god because we can go back to the metaphor, go back to the picture, 268 00:16:39.635 --> 00:16:44.835 and it's solid with us and we start understanding it one way and we go, oh no, that wasn't part of the picture. 269 00:16:44.835 --> 00:16:49.769 The metaphor said something different And it kinda secures us in what god has said. 270 00:16:50.389 --> 00:16:50.889 So 271 00:16:51.589 --> 00:16:55.610 I want you to also remember that god loves us and speaks to us gently 272 00:16:56.069 --> 00:16:58.009 and lovingly, even in correction. 273 00:16:58.470 --> 00:17:02.170 Jesus quoted this for us in math Isaiah fifty four thirteen. 274 00:17:02.605 --> 00:17:05.425 He said, this is the Isaiah fifty four thirteen, 275 00:17:05.885 --> 00:17:08.625 then all your children will be taught by the Lord. 276 00:17:08.925 --> 00:17:10.785 Their prosperity will be great. 277 00:17:11.005 --> 00:17:19.599 Now he he showed us that the context here, because he went on to say when he quoted that, that all those who come to the father for teaching now will come to me. 278 00:17:19.900 --> 00:17:24.080 So that's pretty cool. And so he gave us the context of this, 279 00:17:24.619 --> 00:17:25.119 prophecy. 280 00:17:25.500 --> 00:17:26.480 It's him. 281 00:17:26.859 --> 00:17:32.965 So if you back up a little bit in the same context, Isaiah fifty four ten, you see that he says, 282 00:17:33.585 --> 00:17:36.725 though the mountains move and the hills shake, 283 00:17:37.585 --> 00:17:40.805 my love will not be removed from you 284 00:17:41.105 --> 00:17:44.405 and my covenant of peace will not be shaken, 285 00:17:45.049 --> 00:17:46.429 Says your compassionate 286 00:17:46.890 --> 00:17:47.390 Lord. 287 00:17:47.850 --> 00:17:53.390 So you gotta remember that when you start if you you're having weird dreams or you're having scary dreams. 288 00:17:54.010 --> 00:17:58.250 You need to say that it automatically assume that that's got nothing to do. 289 00:17:58.250 --> 00:18:01.555 It's probably got to do with the movie you watched. It's got nothing to do with god. 290 00:18:01.555 --> 00:18:04.915 God's not mad at you. God's not screaming at you. Yes. 291 00:18:04.915 --> 00:18:12.135 When you grow in dreams, god can show you different things and and and warning dreams and stuff like that, but that's not where he starts. 292 00:18:12.320 --> 00:18:13.220 And even when 293 00:18:14.000 --> 00:18:15.140 you, grow up 294 00:18:15.520 --> 00:18:17.700 and having dreams and understanding dreams, 295 00:18:18.080 --> 00:18:22.420 he he never does it in a way that makes you feel fearful 296 00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:24.500 or makes you feel like 297 00:18:24.875 --> 00:18:29.615 God is not there. He said, the covenant of peace will not be shaken. 298 00:18:30.475 --> 00:18:35.835 He will not remove the covenant of peace from you. He will not remove his love from you. 299 00:18:35.835 --> 00:18:39.695 He is always in that place with you. So that helps you to know 300 00:18:40.070 --> 00:18:45.590 when a dream comes and there's just that peace of God, and you know it's different than those other dreams. 301 00:18:45.590 --> 00:18:47.050 And here's a sign, 302 00:18:47.430 --> 00:18:57.685 a lot of dreams in the Bible, when you see them, it's the like, for instance, Pharaoh, he knew when he woke up, when he woke up, that something was different about that dream. 303 00:18:57.825 --> 00:19:01.025 He just knew. And God gives us that same knowing. 304 00:19:01.025 --> 00:19:06.245 And then you see that all throughout the bible, that same knowing. No. That dream came from God. 305 00:19:06.305 --> 00:19:10.885 I know something was different about that dream. And you start going through the process. 306 00:19:11.170 --> 00:19:13.170 Lord, thank you for answering my prayers about dreams. 307 00:19:13.170 --> 00:19:16.470 Speak to me clearly and help me to understand and get quiet. 308 00:19:16.770 --> 00:19:21.090 Get your journal out. Sit down. Get out of the bed so you don't go back to sleep. 309 00:19:21.090 --> 00:19:24.230 Get out of the bed. Get your journal out. Go and write it down. 310 00:19:27.044 --> 00:19:27.544 So 311 00:19:28.565 --> 00:19:30.345 that's today's message. 312 00:19:31.044 --> 00:19:34.745 And we're gonna go on this again.

You've seen it in the word of god. 320 00:20:10.679 --> 00:20:14.779 You've heard about it now. I'm gonna add my faith to yours that you'd either be 321 00:20:15.159 --> 00:20:20.299 expanded in the the dreams that you are already having from the lord. You get more understanding 322 00:20:20.600 --> 00:20:21.820 or that you would, 323 00:20:22.595 --> 00:20:23.955 start to have dreams from god. 324 00:20:23.955 --> 00:20:29.655 So if you want that, just bow your head right now as I pray and and and talk to him as well. 325 00:20:29.875 --> 00:20:31.655 So father, I just 326 00:20:32.275 --> 00:20:37.550 do what you ask me to do.

I'm so happy that I found You, 343 00:21:39.289 --> 00:21:40.190 actually through a 344 00:21:40.570 --> 00:21:41.630 challenge last September, 345 00:21:42.010 --> 00:21:43.470 the face to face challenge. 346 00:21:44.010 --> 00:21:45.710 And a friend invited me, 347 00:21:46.890 --> 00:21:49.470 and I had seen the markings of transformation 348 00:21:49.770 --> 00:21:51.950 in her life. We were part of a prayer group. 349 00:21:52.335 --> 00:21:52.835 And, 350 00:21:54.255 --> 00:21:55.075 just seeing 351 00:21:56.015 --> 00:22:03.375 this shift that was happening in her life since she joined, and she would talk about Rick's teachings every once in a while and share with us. 352 00:22:03.375 --> 00:22:04.140 But I could just 353 00:22:04.940 --> 00:22:07.920 see a light coming on in her that wasn't there before. 354 00:22:08.620 --> 00:22:11.120 And I have been asking the Lord to take me deeper 355 00:22:11.500 --> 00:22:13.200 in understanding his word. 356 00:22:14.300 --> 00:22:19.440 Just just that simple prayer, Lord, take me deeper. I just want to know you more. 357 00:22:19.905 --> 00:22:23.285 And so I listened to the face to face challenge. 358 00:22:23.585 --> 00:22:24.405 I struggled 359 00:22:25.025 --> 00:22:25.525 with, 360 00:22:27.025 --> 00:22:28.885 the this idea that 361 00:22:29.665 --> 00:22:30.805 there is a participation 362 00:22:31.265 --> 00:22:34.325 that we play, but it is really him at work 363 00:22:34.679 --> 00:22:35.179 within 364 00:22:35.639 --> 00:22:39.980 us that causes this change to happen. And I have two little ones 365 00:22:43.000 --> 00:22:44.620 who have been also 366 00:22:45.320 --> 00:22:46.860 doing t u with me. 367 00:22:47.755 --> 00:22:49.755 So raising little ones to, 368 00:22:50.875 --> 00:22:52.655 understand intimacy with God. 369 00:22:53.515 --> 00:22:54.655 But as I 370 00:22:55.355 --> 00:22:58.095 as I wrestled through this idea that 371 00:22:58.715 --> 00:23:00.415 could it really be that simple, 372 00:23:00.794 --> 00:23:02.895 that I'm supposed to just sit 373 00:23:03.360 --> 00:23:04.580 and let God 374 00:23:04.880 --> 00:23:06.500 do the work in my life? 375 00:23:06.880 --> 00:23:10.340 As I surrendered to that, there was this transformational 376 00:23:10.720 --> 00:23:12.580 shift that happened in my life. 377 00:23:13.920 --> 00:23:15.059 I joined the school 378 00:23:15.645 --> 00:23:17.745 in three months. I listened to everything 379 00:23:18.525 --> 00:23:21.585 while I was driving, while I was changing diapers, 380 00:23:22.525 --> 00:23:24.385 while I was cooking in my kitchen, 381 00:23:24.925 --> 00:23:26.225 on my way to church. 382 00:23:26.525 --> 00:23:27.505 I was just 383 00:23:28.125 --> 00:23:29.985 letting it wash over me. 384 00:23:30.420 --> 00:23:35.400 I I told the Lord in the beginning, I don't have a lot of time to sit down 385 00:23:35.780 --> 00:23:37.480 and take notes and really, 386 00:23:38.180 --> 00:23:43.720 you know, do my part to make this go deep. So I'm trusting you that I have the mind of Christ. 387 00:23:44.235 --> 00:23:53.055 Started applying the mashups right away, and I said, I have the mind of Christ, and I thank you, Lord, that you're gonna help me get everything out of this, that you called me. 388 00:23:53.115 --> 00:23:54.815 You know, you you brought me here. 389 00:23:55.195 --> 00:23:58.740 You're gonna help me get everything out of it that you want me to get out of it. 390 00:23:59.220 --> 00:24:03.640 God has transformed my life for a purpose. He has a mission with me. 391 00:24:03.940 --> 00:24:09.000 And as I just continue to say yes to him, the way he has breathed on my life 392 00:24:09.540 --> 00:24:10.760 and transformed 393 00:24:11.140 --> 00:24:11.800 my life 394 00:24:12.715 --> 00:24:15.294 outside of just my relationship with him. 395 00:24:15.674 --> 00:24:17.995 And we'll see how much longer I have. But, 396 00:24:18.315 --> 00:24:20.654 this is supposed to be quick anyways. I just 397 00:24:21.995 --> 00:24:23.615 I'm just so beyond grateful 398 00:24:24.075 --> 00:24:27.350 to this school for how it has impacted my life. 399 00:24:27.730 --> 00:24:30.150 And I know that this is just the beginning. 400 00:24:30.450 --> 00:24:33.510 God continues to say, this is just the floor. 401 00:24:33.970 --> 00:24:37.430 Every time we think we see a miracle and it's the ceiling, 402 00:24:37.890 --> 00:24:43.455 he's like, nope. This is just another step. It's gonna become your floor. So I pray 403 00:24:43.914 --> 00:24:46.095 that you guys have already been blessed, 404 00:24:48.075 --> 00:24:49.934 already been blessed by the teachings 405 00:24:50.315 --> 00:24:51.054 so far. 406 00:24:51.710 --> 00:24:57.010 Stay to the end of this one. And if you feel that tug in your heart to join TU, 407 00:24:57.470 --> 00:25:02.450 I promise you, you will not regret it. The Lord is taking you deeper. 408 00:25:02.910 --> 00:25:07.175 He wants to transform your life. He wants you to know him like 409 00:25:10.376 --> 00:25:10.876 Jesus 410 00:25:14.077 --> 00:25:14.577 knew 411 00:25:17.778 --> 00:25:18.278 him. 412 00:25:51.110 --> 00:25:51.930 Hey, everybody. 413 00:25:52.470 --> 00:25:56.570 Welcome back to behind the curtain. It's, good to be with you guys. 414 00:25:57.350 --> 00:25:59.670 I love the fact that you've joined us and, 415 00:26:00.070 --> 00:26:04.455 going deeper, going deeper and deeper and deeper with the Lord and with your prayer life. 416 00:26:05.095 --> 00:26:12.855 I have had so many experiences, and you heard a little bit there about God showing me and because I was always crying, oh, God, I wanna know you. 417 00:26:12.855 --> 00:26:19.034 God, I wanna know you. And he would continually show me things that that deepen my relationship. 418 00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:23.399 You know, showed showed showed me that the way and I hinted at this. 419 00:26:23.399 --> 00:26:26.220 It showed me that the way I was praying just through a list, 420 00:26:27.000 --> 00:26:30.759 was not the way that he wanted me to pray. There's nothing wrong. 421 00:26:30.759 --> 00:26:33.399 There's certain things we're called to pray for, and we pray for them. 422 00:26:33.399 --> 00:26:39.195 But to just make our life about a list or about something we repeat, that's not what he wants for us. 423 00:26:39.495 --> 00:26:41.115 So he wants a conversation. 424 00:26:41.735 --> 00:26:42.955 He wants a conversation. 425 00:26:43.495 --> 00:26:48.715 He wants us to be in his presence, and he wants that conversation to happen all the time. 426 00:26:49.200 --> 00:26:57.760 So, you you you you he kept on teaching me about different ways he speaks to me and different ways I can relate to him. 427 00:26:57.760 --> 00:27:06.295 And, of course, this this was just off the charts, the way that he started to speak to me in dreams and caused me to understand the dreams. 428 00:27:06.595 --> 00:27:07.335 In fact, 429 00:27:08.595 --> 00:27:10.375 part of that, part of the process 430 00:27:10.755 --> 00:27:14.775 was he tagged on to the end of that hour that he was going to give me 431 00:27:15.075 --> 00:27:17.975 the same blessing that Daniel had 432 00:27:19.120 --> 00:27:21.140 to understand and interpret dreams. 433 00:27:21.840 --> 00:27:26.240 And I've always I grabbed onto that and took the faith and just ran with that. 434 00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:31.120 And I've always been able to understand even other people's dreams and what they mean and stuff like that. 435 00:27:31.120 --> 00:27:33.940 And it's a great blessing. But here's the thing. 436 00:27:35.815 --> 00:27:37.595 God doesn't equip you 437 00:27:39.575 --> 00:27:46.075 with something or provide a form of communication like dreams, like he said in Acts through Joel's prophecy. 438 00:27:46.750 --> 00:27:51.250 Every but every one of you, any of you, all of you can dream dreams, get dreams from God. 439 00:27:51.950 --> 00:27:54.210 He doesn't do that without teaching you. 440 00:27:54.669 --> 00:27:55.570 So I realized, 441 00:27:56.110 --> 00:28:08.424 I realized at some point that looking back on what God had said, that got me excited because it kind of made me feel special that, wow, I can understand dreams like Daniel did and have dreams like Daniel did, and I have. 442 00:28:09.764 --> 00:28:11.144 But that's for every Christian. 443 00:28:11.924 --> 00:28:15.270 Because Daniel could do that because the spirit of God was on him. 444 00:28:16.230 --> 00:28:21.050 So I didn't understand that at the time, but God was in that way saying to me 445 00:28:21.430 --> 00:28:26.570 that you can do the same thing. How many of you here want the same gift 446 00:28:27.030 --> 00:28:30.934 of understand having an understanding dreams that Daniel had? Yeah. You. 447 00:28:31.595 --> 00:28:36.235 I don't know if we have comments here, but if you do, just put down in there, amen. I do. I do. 448 00:28:36.235 --> 00:28:40.975 I do. Okay. We all do. Well, you have the ability to do that. 449 00:28:41.995 --> 00:28:46.740 It's already the spirit of God's already in you. The word of God already promises it. 450 00:28:47.200 --> 00:28:49.860 You can start growing in this as of today. 451 00:28:50.640 --> 00:28:53.620 So we need to adjust our faith to these things. 452 00:28:54.080 --> 00:28:59.534 You know, you get people who and and in the school, of course, it's it's different because we break all of these 453 00:29:00.154 --> 00:29:05.995 ideas that we have. Well, god doesn't speak to me. Well, you know, I don't get those kind of dreams. 454 00:29:05.995 --> 00:29:10.634 Well, I don't have those experiences. Well, Rick, god seems to speak to you really clearly. 455 00:29:10.634 --> 00:29:11.274 It's like, 456 00:29:11.755 --> 00:29:13.170 you know, it just doesn't happen. 457 00:29:16.930 --> 00:29:21.190 And we we everything in the everything in the new covenant is by grace 458 00:29:21.570 --> 00:29:22.550 through faith. 459 00:29:23.970 --> 00:29:26.470 So if through doubt you disqualify 460 00:29:26.850 --> 00:29:30.355 yourself from something, you're not going to experience it. 461 00:29:31.615 --> 00:29:36.195 But if you realize it comes to you by grace because the Spirit of God's been given to you freely 462 00:29:36.735 --> 00:29:38.835 and Jesus has already paid the price, 463 00:29:39.535 --> 00:29:42.195 then what happens is you start experiencing this. 464 00:29:42.430 --> 00:29:45.730 From the time that the Lord started talking to me about dreams 465 00:29:46.990 --> 00:29:48.690 and had that one hour conversation, 466 00:29:49.150 --> 00:29:50.530 my faith was ignited. 467 00:29:51.630 --> 00:29:55.890 And I just believed that God would speak to me in dreams and show me the interpretation. 468 00:29:56.190 --> 00:29:57.015 And I have 469 00:29:57.495 --> 00:30:02.615 of I I think I'm on my second or third dream journal now. And the one I've got now is digital. 470 00:30:02.615 --> 00:30:05.595 Thank you, Lord. Because it it doesn't come to an end. 471 00:30:06.535 --> 00:30:16.360 So the, you know, I I make a point of always going and writing those dreams down and finding what god said and you know, I was even doing this the other day. 472 00:30:16.360 --> 00:30:24.825 Going back over some of the dreams in this last few months that god gave me and I'm talking to him about, okay, well, what do we do here and what do we do there? 473 00:30:24.985 --> 00:30:28.904 And it just in my heart was go back and look at the dreams, and I did. 474 00:30:28.904 --> 00:30:32.445 And I could see the pattern over the course of three to five dreams, 475 00:30:32.985 --> 00:30:40.800 the last ones he gave me, the the you put them all together and the message of exactly what I was asking him about was already there in the dreams. 476 00:30:42.000 --> 00:30:46.580 So he's talking to us in these ways. And so here's a hint. 477 00:30:47.200 --> 00:30:50.820 Get you when when you're about to say, I don't hear God, 478 00:30:51.280 --> 00:30:57.245 remember I even as a young Christian, I would you know, the Bible says my Jesus said, my sheep hear my voice. 479 00:30:57.945 --> 00:30:58.845 I was a sheep, 480 00:30:59.385 --> 00:31:03.965 and I would I would at times, I would hear his voice, and at times, it seemed like I wasn't. 481 00:31:04.345 --> 00:31:07.680 So I'd be telling people, I'd say, I'm not hearing him right now. 482 00:31:09.520 --> 00:31:12.180 Well, Jesus said my sheep hear my voice. 483 00:31:12.640 --> 00:31:14.100 So one of us is lying. 484 00:31:17.180 --> 00:31:18.020 You get that? 485 00:31:18.320 --> 00:31:20.260 When I finally got that, no. 486 00:31:20.935 --> 00:31:28.875 I have to believe that what Jesus said is true, not what my experience or my thoughts are saying or my emotional point, my emotional 487 00:31:29.175 --> 00:31:31.195 my feeling in that particular point. 488 00:31:31.735 --> 00:31:43.650 So I started saying, thank you, Lord, that you give me dreams, that you speak to me in every different way, that you speak to me in visions, that you speak to me in dreams, that Jesus, I hear your voice, that Lord, I thank you that 489 00:31:43.950 --> 00:31:50.595 that you you said that I would know your sheep would know you and be known by you in the same way that you were 490 00:31:52.515 --> 00:31:55.075 known by the father and knew the father. That's big. I trust you for that. 491 00:31:55.075 --> 00:31:58.054 I don't have to work for it. You don't have to work for it. 492 00:31:58.275 --> 00:32:01.414 It's yours because of what Jesus Christ did. 493 00:32:01.875 --> 00:32:04.615 So I just everyone here take a second. 494 00:32:04.930 --> 00:32:10.930 If you're in that category where you've been saying, well, you know, man, I I I just don't hear his voice. 495 00:32:10.930 --> 00:32:12.950 Well, I don't have dreams. Well, I don't have visions. 496 00:32:13.570 --> 00:32:14.950 I want you to just say, 497 00:32:15.330 --> 00:32:19.635 ask the Lord right now. You don't need to say sorry because you're learning this for the first time. 498 00:32:19.715 --> 00:32:26.135 You you just need to go to him and say, help me get over this. Help me say what you say and believe 499 00:32:26.515 --> 00:32:27.975 what you say is true, 500 00:32:28.595 --> 00:32:33.655 and help me to be able to say that when I open my mouth. Go ahead and do that. Just take a second. 501 00:32:45.140 --> 00:32:45.860 We have to know 502 00:32:47.255 --> 00:32:48.535 we've gotta switch this. 503 00:32:48.535 --> 00:32:57.275 Like, as I was saying earlier, the the old covenant attitude that, well, god doesn't talk to me that, you know, well, I don't hear or I'm not special. 504 00:32:58.135 --> 00:32:58.635 Right? 505 00:33:00.300 --> 00:33:04.240 And we feel like we're always trying to get god to sorta notice us 506 00:33:04.620 --> 00:33:08.400 and talk to us. It's actually in the new covenant. It's the other way around. 507 00:33:09.580 --> 00:33:12.720 The father really wants to speak to every single one of us, 508 00:33:13.260 --> 00:33:13.760 and 509 00:33:14.284 --> 00:33:16.465 he's the one trying to get our attention. 510 00:33:17.485 --> 00:33:23.184 But he wants us to understand what the word of god says because he functions according to his promises. 511 00:33:23.645 --> 00:33:28.784 He functions according to god's word. So when we understand what he said is going to happen, 512 00:33:29.630 --> 00:33:34.049 then we and we start walking in it. We start hearing from him on a regular basis. 513 00:33:34.190 --> 00:33:36.210 It's just that simple. 514 00:33:37.309 --> 00:33:39.649 Let's look at Isaiah forty two thirteen. 515 00:33:40.750 --> 00:33:42.450 14 and verse 16. 516 00:33:43.635 --> 00:33:48.515 The Lord goes, yes, I like the people are probably noticing by now. I like the book of Isaiah. 517 00:33:48.515 --> 00:33:53.415 The some people call it the fifth gospel because it talks so much about Jesus and us in Christ. 518 00:33:53.475 --> 00:33:58.020 That's what the prophecy, the main prophecy is about, main sections of prophecy are about. 519 00:33:58.260 --> 00:34:01.220 But I call it the first because, you know, he did get it first. 520 00:34:01.220 --> 00:34:04.120 He he he wrote the gospel without having to see it. 521 00:34:04.420 --> 00:34:06.680 The others the others were eyewitnesses 522 00:34:07.065 --> 00:34:10.280 you. So I I give Isaiah the credit of being the first gospel. 523 00:34:10.775 --> 00:34:11.275 So 524 00:34:11.655 --> 00:34:17.835 verse 13. The Lord goes out like a mighty man. Now this is talking about our Lord Jesus Christ, 525 00:34:18.215 --> 00:34:23.675 our father. He goes out like a mighty man of war. He stirs up his zeal. 526 00:34:24.080 --> 00:34:26.800 For what? What's he what's he so passionate about? 527 00:34:26.800 --> 00:34:28.960 He's painting the prophet's painting a picture here. 528 00:34:28.960 --> 00:34:34.000 The Holy Spirit is through the prophet of God just being passionate and zealous about something. 529 00:34:34.000 --> 00:34:38.500 Going out like a man of war. And he cries out. He shouts aloud. 530 00:34:38.844 --> 00:34:41.905 He shows himself mighty against his foes. 531 00:34:42.285 --> 00:34:47.425 He's been looking forward to doing this and he's about to do it. You put this with other prophecies. 532 00:34:47.485 --> 00:34:48.625 He's talking about 533 00:34:49.805 --> 00:34:56.140 against his foes, against sin, against the devil, the one who came in and stole his stole his children. 534 00:34:56.520 --> 00:35:00.060 He would he he got to the place where he was sending his son. 535 00:35:00.120 --> 00:35:02.600 And it says he goes out like a mighty man. 536 00:35:02.600 --> 00:35:06.300 He goes out with his passion like a mighty man against his foes 537 00:35:06.600 --> 00:35:10.455 because he knew he was gonna defeat the enemy by what Jesus did 538 00:35:10.935 --> 00:35:15.115 and bring us all back to himself for conversation. Now look at verse 14. 539 00:35:15.735 --> 00:35:18.875 For a long time, I have held my peace. 540 00:35:19.255 --> 00:35:20.795 I have count still. 541 00:35:21.335 --> 00:35:23.355 He wasn't able to talk to us. 542 00:35:24.020 --> 00:35:28.980 He wasn't able to get through to us because our our we were not not connected with him. 543 00:35:28.980 --> 00:35:39.400 Our sins were in between us and him, and we couldn't have conversation with him and act like his children, like we see with Adam and Eve before the fall. 544 00:35:40.205 --> 00:35:43.185 So he says, for a long time, I have held my peace. 545 00:35:43.485 --> 00:35:45.905 I have kept still and restrained myself. 546 00:35:46.525 --> 00:35:50.145 Now I will cry out like a woman in labor. 547 00:35:50.445 --> 00:35:55.490 I will gasp and pant. You can see how sometimes in dreams and same thing with prophecy. 548 00:35:55.710 --> 00:35:59.010 You have pictures. Well, what is this? He's talking about the new birth. 549 00:35:59.630 --> 00:36:10.505 He's talking about his children coming out of sin, coming out of Adam, and coming into Christ And he's saying that he restrained himself out to up up till now, but he's not going to. 550 00:36:10.645 --> 00:36:13.945 He is going to cry out like a woman, like, like, 551 00:36:14.325 --> 00:36:17.045 he's, his children are coming. His children are coming. 552 00:36:17.045 --> 00:36:22.360 He's going to gasp and he's going to gasp and pant. Then, Brent jumped down to verse 16 553 00:36:22.900 --> 00:36:30.280 and I will lead the blind. This is what's happening now. He's he's coming full circle to the sheep, 554 00:36:30.660 --> 00:36:31.640 right? Us, 555 00:36:32.100 --> 00:36:37.525 those in Christ. He's defeated the enemy. He's brought us into Christ. He's made us new creations 556 00:36:37.905 --> 00:36:42.405 and he says here, the passion of this is no longer, he's not going to be quiet anymore. 557 00:36:43.744 --> 00:36:45.365 He's not going to stand back. 558 00:36:45.665 --> 00:36:52.860 I will lead the blind in a way that they should that they do not know, in past that they have not known. 559 00:36:53.320 --> 00:36:55.980 I will guide them. I will turn the darkness 560 00:36:56.760 --> 00:37:00.780 before them into light. The rough places into level ground. 561 00:37:01.125 --> 00:37:03.865 These are the things that I you, and I do 562 00:37:04.245 --> 00:37:06.185 not forsake them. 563 00:37:08.085 --> 00:37:10.345 Are are are you you hearing that? 564 00:37:10.805 --> 00:37:12.665 I mean, that's an incredible prophecy 565 00:37:13.230 --> 00:37:18.050 that now we're back in that place of conversation and he's saying, I'm gonna protect you. 566 00:37:18.190 --> 00:37:23.950 I am going to guide you. I'm gonna show you. Go left. Go right. I'm gonna communicate with you. 567 00:37:23.950 --> 00:37:29.045 I'm gonna open your your eyes so you're no longer blind. I'm gonna make things clear. 568 00:37:29.045 --> 00:37:31.545 I'm no longer going to be silent. 569 00:37:33.045 --> 00:37:37.065 And you sometimes we think again that God is being quiet. 570 00:37:38.005 --> 00:37:38.905 He's not. 571 00:37:39.684 --> 00:37:42.905 He wants that nonstop conversation with you day 572 00:37:44.000 --> 00:37:44.500 and 573 00:37:45.560 --> 00:37:46.060 night. 574 00:37:47.119 --> 00:37:50.960 Okay. Let's open this up for comments and or or or, 575 00:37:51.520 --> 00:37:52.740 or questions. 576 00:37:53.040 --> 00:38:00.855 Any any question you have about dreams right now, this is what we're doing for this this this episode and the next two episodes as well. 577 00:38:02.275 --> 00:38:06.855 Any questions you have about dream and dreams interpret dream interpretations, just bring them up. 578 00:38:06.915 --> 00:38:07.415 Wally. 579 00:38:08.035 --> 00:38:12.660 Bring them. Bring them on. I just sent out Bring them on. The word, to everyone. 580 00:38:13.200 --> 00:38:13.680 Let's see. 581 00:38:13.680 --> 00:38:18.580 To put a put a you in front of the, the question, I've got a little search routine that I can, 582 00:38:19.280 --> 00:38:21.060 pull it up pretty quick. 583 00:38:21.520 --> 00:38:22.340 In the meantime, 584 00:38:22.880 --> 00:38:24.660 I had someone ask this question. 585 00:38:27.315 --> 00:38:29.895 Says the Bible says we should pray continuously. 586 00:38:30.915 --> 00:38:35.655 Does that mean God's trying to speak to me all the time even when I'm not paying attention? 587 00:38:37.395 --> 00:38:37.895 Yes. 588 00:38:38.510 --> 00:38:39.890 If prayer is conversation, 589 00:38:41.150 --> 00:38:43.650 let's just go by logic. If prayer is conversation, 590 00:38:47.550 --> 00:38:48.530 and he says 591 00:38:49.230 --> 00:38:50.130 pray continuously, 592 00:38:51.305 --> 00:38:53.805 Mean when it means he wants a continual conversation. 593 00:38:55.785 --> 00:38:56.285 Daniel, 594 00:38:56.665 --> 00:38:57.885 the Bible says that 595 00:38:58.585 --> 00:38:59.725 three times a day, 596 00:39:00.505 --> 00:39:01.565 he opened the window 597 00:39:01.865 --> 00:39:04.525 and he faced Jerusalem where Jerusalem was 598 00:39:04.825 --> 00:39:05.885 and he prayed. 599 00:39:06.260 --> 00:39:10.920 And it doesn't say, well, there was times when god spoke to him and god when god didn't speak to him. 600 00:39:12.260 --> 00:39:14.839 It's like he was in communication. He was in constant 601 00:39:15.700 --> 00:39:21.000 conversation with god and a lot of the Old Testament people were. But the thing is is that 602 00:39:21.565 --> 00:39:24.465 we think, again, it's special. No. We he's 603 00:39:24.765 --> 00:39:26.625 poured out his spirit on all of us. 604 00:39:27.245 --> 00:39:28.545 So to pray continuously 605 00:39:29.005 --> 00:39:34.925 is to come to the place that no matter what you're doing, you're you're aware that he's one spirit with you. 606 00:39:34.925 --> 00:39:39.000 You're aware that he's always with you. That at any particular moment, 607 00:39:39.380 --> 00:39:43.960 if you're blind to something, you don't know whether you should go this way or that way at any particular moment. 608 00:39:44.099 --> 00:39:49.400 You don't have to wait till your prayer hour or two hours or five minutes in the morning time. 609 00:39:49.619 --> 00:39:51.400 You talk to him right then and there. 610 00:39:51.775 --> 00:39:58.994 And or you find that a lot of times, the Bible says, and I love this verse, he says that before we cry out, 611 00:39:59.775 --> 00:40:03.875 he will hear and know. He knows and hears and answer our prayers. 612 00:40:04.470 --> 00:40:06.470 In other words, He's right here with us. 613 00:40:06.470 --> 00:40:08.690 Before you even get it out of your mouth, He knows what you you. 614 00:40:09.190 --> 00:40:11.530 And as you learn to walk in that continuously, 615 00:40:12.230 --> 00:40:14.310 you're you're wondering what you should do. 616 00:40:14.310 --> 00:40:19.210 And just before you even pray about it, the Lord has dropped the wisdom in what you should do into your spirit. 617 00:40:19.765 --> 00:40:20.405 Exactly. Right? 618 00:40:20.405 --> 00:40:26.805 It's a constant conversation that doesn't mean you hear an audible voice of god or you're always in a dream or anything like that. 619 00:40:26.805 --> 00:40:30.505 God's got he created communication in his every form. 620 00:40:31.205 --> 00:40:31.865 I mean, 621 00:40:32.244 --> 00:40:34.770 he he and we're gonna be talking about that 622 00:40:35.170 --> 00:40:38.870 in in future episodes, in every different way that god can speak to us. 623 00:40:39.090 --> 00:40:43.270 But you what we need to realize is he's in constant conversation. 624 00:40:44.130 --> 00:40:46.790 And he said that when he said pray continuously. 625 00:40:48.935 --> 00:40:51.435 Constant conversation, different style of conversation 626 00:40:51.735 --> 00:41:00.955 when we're just sensing him in his heart and he's putting thoughts in our mind or he's speaking to us inside or he gives us a sudden picture, he speaks to us at night and gives us a dream. 627 00:41:01.260 --> 00:41:07.680 I mean, we can even trust him, and I didn't say this yet. We can even trust him with our dreams 628 00:41:08.700 --> 00:41:12.160 because he created the dream system, the filing system. 629 00:41:13.100 --> 00:41:17.065 Right? So he may not be speaking to us that night in the dreams, 630 00:41:17.445 --> 00:41:20.425 but he who keeps Israel neither slumbers nor sleeps. 631 00:41:21.205 --> 00:41:25.545 So what happens is is if you're having trouble with the kind of dreams that you're having, 632 00:41:25.925 --> 00:41:26.744 trust him. 633 00:41:27.045 --> 00:41:28.265 Trust him to start, 634 00:41:28.569 --> 00:41:33.230 you know, rearranging the filing system and teaching you about it. That's good. 635 00:41:33.770 --> 00:41:34.430 You know, 636 00:41:34.730 --> 00:41:36.990 you you made a point here that there was kinda 637 00:41:37.609 --> 00:41:38.109 almost, 638 00:41:39.210 --> 00:41:39.710 subconscious 639 00:41:40.490 --> 00:41:42.109 about having a prayer time, 640 00:41:42.490 --> 00:41:45.545 and that's the only time that God speaks to you. 641 00:41:46.165 --> 00:41:47.685 So it's it's like we okay. 642 00:41:47.685 --> 00:41:53.385 We've set this time from 6AM to 7AM to talk to God, and we go on our business about the day. 643 00:41:53.605 --> 00:41:56.745 And that God would only speak to us between six and 7AM. 644 00:41:57.380 --> 00:41:58.500 So I you know, it's 645 00:41:59.060 --> 00:42:03.000 honestly, you you do need to keep your at least your receiver on, 646 00:42:04.100 --> 00:42:04.760 you know, 647 00:42:05.700 --> 00:42:10.335 as you're going about your day and just, you know, just touching base and keeping it going. 648 00:42:10.415 --> 00:42:15.795 He doesn't have to, you know, meet your requirements for six to 7AM or whatever your prayer time is. 649 00:42:15.855 --> 00:42:18.015 You know? That's right. And the Bible says we're 650 00:42:18.974 --> 00:42:22.675 exactly. And the Bible says we're transformed by the reading of our mind. 651 00:42:22.869 --> 00:42:29.109 If you're hearing this kind of thing for the first time and I'm showing you the scriptures and we've got lots of episodes already here. 652 00:42:29.510 --> 00:42:33.030 You know, we're just finishing up the first season. So we've got, 11. 653 00:42:33.030 --> 00:42:35.130 This is, I think, the eleventh episode. 654 00:42:36.675 --> 00:42:41.495 If you go back and listen to all the different episodes, different topics, different bible verses, 655 00:42:41.795 --> 00:42:47.335 and listen to them again and again and again, you're gonna start to realize and see the pattern in god's word 656 00:42:47.970 --> 00:42:53.110 that he wants that constant communication with you and it's the word of god that transform, 657 00:42:53.330 --> 00:42:54.630 that renews our mind 658 00:42:55.490 --> 00:42:58.630 and when our mind is renewed, our life is transformed. 659 00:42:59.330 --> 00:43:03.465 So, right away, as you're just resting in that, taking in his word, 660 00:43:03.945 --> 00:43:08.925 he writes it on your heart. Next thing you know, you're you're it's easy for you. 661 00:43:09.385 --> 00:43:15.565 It's easy for you to understand that he's always talking to you and to start growing in it because you trust him to do that. 662 00:43:15.625 --> 00:43:20.100 So stay with us, stay on the journey, keep on going back and listening, 663 00:43:20.400 --> 00:43:25.220 and seeing digging for yourself in the word of god with the scriptures that I give and that I use. 664 00:43:25.440 --> 00:43:30.315 And, yeah, it's gonna come to the place when I talked about the I was doing the hour. 665 00:43:31.035 --> 00:43:33.375 Yeah. Right. You're saying almost subconscious 666 00:43:33.835 --> 00:43:34.714 doing the hour. 667 00:43:34.714 --> 00:43:41.214 It's just when I look back on it, it was so funny because what was God saying about the hour when he said you him, we're not doing that today. 668 00:43:41.515 --> 00:43:42.870 I just wanna talk to you. 669 00:43:44.390 --> 00:43:48.250 And it was short not too long after that that he showed me that this 670 00:43:48.630 --> 00:43:49.130 this 671 00:43:49.510 --> 00:43:53.930 pattern of prayer that I was just constantly doing the same thing wasn't what he wanted. 672 00:43:54.310 --> 00:44:00.335 Right? So he started to expand me out of that and teach me more. And I love what you said, Wally. 673 00:44:00.475 --> 00:44:05.295 Expand you beyond the hour. Yeah. Beyond the hour. Get you out of the closet. You know, 674 00:44:05.675 --> 00:44:06.415 I'm reminded 675 00:44:06.715 --> 00:44:12.015 of, the story of Ananias. You've told this before in your teaching about it was just normal 676 00:44:12.450 --> 00:44:16.690 for the Lord to speak. So it doesn't matter. It doesn't have to be daylight or nighttime. 677 00:44:16.690 --> 00:44:20.070 It just that's just normal, and we should expect that 678 00:44:20.770 --> 00:44:21.730 that you be. 679 00:44:22.210 --> 00:44:24.050 I think Mark's got a great question here. 680 00:44:24.050 --> 00:44:29.155 He says, he asked, I see that there are four types of dreams. See if I can 681 00:44:29.455 --> 00:44:30.895 screen. There you go. 682 00:44:30.895 --> 00:44:36.515 I see that there are four types of dreams, prophetic, warning, divine revelation, and ordinary. 683 00:44:37.135 --> 00:44:42.130 Should I try to classify my dreams into these types, and which one is the most important? 684 00:44:43.790 --> 00:44:47.970 I would say that that's, that's that's not all the different types of dreams. 685 00:44:49.150 --> 00:44:50.370 God speaks in dreams, 686 00:44:50.830 --> 00:44:54.190 and he he when he speaks you you in the night, like, we think, okay. 687 00:44:54.190 --> 00:44:56.925 Well, I'm not listening to You anymore because I'm sleeping. 688 00:44:57.305 --> 00:44:59.085 Well, the Bible says he never sleeps. 689 00:44:59.385 --> 00:45:00.685 He never sleeps. 690 00:45:01.065 --> 00:45:01.565 And 691 00:45:02.025 --> 00:45:07.385 first Corinthians six says that he's one you're one spirit with God, the spirit of God. 692 00:45:07.385 --> 00:45:09.325 You're the temple of the spirit of God. 693 00:45:09.570 --> 00:45:14.150 He's he he's ready to speak to you even when you're sleeping and knows how to do it 694 00:45:14.450 --> 00:45:17.670 to knows how to do it in a way that'll either wake you up or let you sleep. 695 00:45:18.690 --> 00:45:20.550 Trust me in that one. So 696 00:45:21.090 --> 00:45:24.070 he he speaks to you in any way that 697 00:45:24.585 --> 00:45:29.325 I mean, there's and we're gonna look at this next week with Joseph and Mary. 698 00:45:29.525 --> 00:45:32.125 You speak to you having angels show up in your dream. 699 00:45:32.645 --> 00:45:36.845 You can speak to you where he, biblically, he shows up in a dream. 700 00:45:36.905 --> 00:45:40.125 So there's there's there's what they call night visions, 701 00:45:40.480 --> 00:45:43.060 which is something that's more like you're kind of awake, 702 00:45:44.240 --> 00:45:49.300 not quite asleep and he gives you a vision which is a dream but you know, you're more active with it. 703 00:45:49.760 --> 00:45:52.980 There are warning dreams. There are prophetic dreams. There are 704 00:45:53.475 --> 00:45:56.935 guidance dreams. Every message that God has for you. He can communicate 705 00:45:57.395 --> 00:45:58.675 in a in a dream. 706 00:45:58.675 --> 00:46:08.800 And he can communicate in the dream with an angel, with himself coming, with a picture, with a metaphor, with a so you put all the different things he can do in a dream with all the different ways he can give you a dream. 707 00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:10.180 That's more than three types. 708 00:46:12.400 --> 00:46:14.020 So don't focus. 709 00:46:14.800 --> 00:46:18.100 Don't focus on the type of dream. It doesn't matter. 710 00:46:18.734 --> 00:46:21.315 Focus on the fact that he said he would speak to 711 00:46:21.615 --> 00:46:24.914 you and that he'd speak to you plainly. He'll show you what it means. 712 00:46:26.015 --> 00:46:27.394 And trust him for that. 713 00:46:27.454 --> 00:46:31.474 Now if you've had a dream and it's been a while and you think it was from god, 714 00:46:31.820 --> 00:46:33.520 but he hasn't, you haven't, 715 00:46:33.820 --> 00:46:38.560 you know, even when you've sat down and spent some quiet time and talking to him about it, you haven't 716 00:46:39.100 --> 00:46:40.400 understood what it means. 717 00:46:41.180 --> 00:46:44.480 You're learning. Just put it on the shelf. He knows you're learning. 718 00:46:44.620 --> 00:46:48.035 It might be it might have thought it was a dream from him, but it wasn't. 719 00:46:48.415 --> 00:46:50.994 But make sure that you spend the time 720 00:46:51.775 --> 00:46:54.994 when you wake up and you think, okay, there's something on that dream. 721 00:46:55.295 --> 00:46:59.795 I remember it. That's the others that's the other sign. You know something was different, 722 00:47:00.440 --> 00:47:04.380 and you remember it. That's a consistent pattern throughout the bible 723 00:47:04.920 --> 00:47:06.300 with dreams from god. 724 00:47:06.680 --> 00:47:09.020 So I remembered it. I know something's different. 725 00:47:09.320 --> 00:47:11.980 Go sit down, write it down. 726 00:47:12.954 --> 00:47:16.734 It's sometimes a lot of times, it's in the writing down 727 00:47:17.115 --> 00:47:19.055 of it that I get the interpretation. 728 00:47:20.234 --> 00:47:22.255 So because why? This is important. 729 00:47:22.954 --> 00:47:25.535 Because I'm showing God that I value his voice. 730 00:47:27.540 --> 00:47:28.920 That I want the conversation. 731 00:47:30.180 --> 00:47:32.440 He started the conversation with the dream. 732 00:47:33.140 --> 00:47:38.040 I'm carrying it on by writing it down and talking to him about it. That's good. That's golden. 733 00:47:39.455 --> 00:47:43.635 So that's what we need to do. That's what we need to but we need to be obedient 734 00:47:44.175 --> 00:47:45.555 and and and thankful 735 00:47:46.015 --> 00:47:46.515 and 736 00:47:46.975 --> 00:47:50.495 engage in it. Sometimes we just okay. I I'm I'm busy. I gotta run. 737 00:47:50.495 --> 00:47:54.600 I gotta you know, maybe you had to get you got up and you slept in and the dream was there. 738 00:47:54.760 --> 00:47:56.060 Ask the lord to remind 739 00:47:56.360 --> 00:48:00.060 you of the dream later or just jot it down the key keynotes 740 00:48:00.360 --> 00:48:01.100 really quickly. 741 00:48:01.480 --> 00:48:06.860 And then on your coffee break or your lunch break or whenever you can, come back to it. 742 00:48:07.085 --> 00:48:07.964 Open your journal. 743 00:48:07.964 --> 00:48:14.944 Open your phone in the notes or your iPad in the notes and and write it down and you the conversation with the lord. 744 00:48:16.285 --> 00:48:17.505 Well, that's right. Awesome. 745 00:48:19.880 --> 00:48:21.020 Carol asks, 746 00:48:21.320 --> 00:48:23.580 should god dreams follow scriptures? 747 00:48:24.360 --> 00:48:28.060 I've had a few where later reading the bible, the dream comes back. 748 00:48:30.600 --> 00:48:36.395 If you mean should they be in in in in lockstep with scripture and according to scripture, yes. 749 00:48:36.395 --> 00:48:43.935 God will not ever whether you're hearing a voice, having a vision, having a dream, God will never speak something contrary to his word. 750 00:48:44.555 --> 00:48:45.035 So, 751 00:48:45.435 --> 00:48:46.350 say for instance, 752 00:48:46.910 --> 00:48:54.850 you're you read in the Bible that by Jesus stripes, you were healed, that that was part of the atonement that that you you you get to walk in divine health. 753 00:48:55.150 --> 00:48:57.410 K? You know that's in the word of god. 754 00:48:57.550 --> 00:49:03.835 And then in a dream, you have, like, Paul said, you know, the devil himself comes as an angel of light. 755 00:49:03.895 --> 00:49:06.135 In a dream, you have, you know, 756 00:49:06.615 --> 00:49:13.830 an angel of light telling you that, no, god's not gonna heal you because, you know, he's made a special case out of you and you just need to suffer. 757 00:49:14.390 --> 00:49:15.370 And wasn't God? 758 00:49:16.070 --> 00:49:16.570 Wasn't 759 00:49:18.550 --> 00:49:19.770 God push it away? 760 00:49:20.390 --> 00:49:20.880 So, you, 761 00:49:22.070 --> 00:49:26.890 every way God speaks because the Bible says the Bible is the more sure word of prophecy. 762 00:49:27.270 --> 00:49:28.410 It's our guide. 763 00:49:28.745 --> 00:49:32.605 The more we understand the Bible, the clearer God can speak to us. 764 00:49:33.705 --> 00:49:34.205 Because 765 00:49:35.145 --> 00:49:37.485 we we know when it's not him. 766 00:49:39.145 --> 00:49:44.365 So the clearer and better we know our Bible, the clearer and better he can talk to us. 767 00:49:44.970 --> 00:49:51.630 So that it we know. We know that it's him. So always in line with the word of God. Always. 768 00:49:52.970 --> 00:49:55.290 And if you know the Bible, you know his language. 769 00:49:55.290 --> 00:49:58.835 And if you know his language, you can dream his language. Right? That's right. 770 00:49:58.835 --> 00:50:00.835 And that's what we do in You, of course. 771 00:50:00.835 --> 00:50:04.775 We teach you the word of God and how to understand the word of God simply, 772 00:50:05.075 --> 00:50:07.414 which is what he taught me over the ten years. 773 00:50:08.355 --> 00:50:12.224 And when you understand how he teaches you the word and understand how he put it together and understand the keys to understanding it, that's a lot of understands, 774 00:50:19.800 --> 00:50:21.900 it the word of God becomes simple. 775 00:50:22.520 --> 00:50:26.120 And you you've just I I love that, Wally, you know, that's true. 776 00:50:26.120 --> 00:50:38.035 It's like one of my favorite testimonies of people who go through the school say, I I've been reading reading my bible for decades, you know, chapters in this book and that book, and never really felt like I could understand what I was reading. 777 00:50:38.415 --> 00:50:39.795 Now I understand 778 00:50:40.575 --> 00:50:42.066 everything I'm reading in the word of You. 779 00:50:42.815 --> 00:50:45.000 When that happens, you're not thinking, 780 00:50:45.700 --> 00:50:47.540 if I gotta wait until I hear 781 00:50:48.020 --> 00:50:52.360 understand the whole bible before god can speak to me plainly, oh, come on. 782 00:50:52.660 --> 00:50:53.160 No. 783 00:50:53.780 --> 00:50:55.960 God never meant for it to be that complicated. 784 00:50:56.835 --> 00:50:58.775 It's it's religion that's complicated 785 00:50:59.155 --> 00:51:00.055 the way God 786 00:51:00.755 --> 00:51:03.635 made this to work, and it's the same thing with dreams. 787 00:51:03.635 --> 00:51:08.215 We don't have and hearing his voice in all these different ways. We don't have to complicate it. 788 00:51:08.355 --> 00:51:10.775 Just believe what the word of God says. Yeah. 789 00:51:11.410 --> 00:51:15.170 You set the stage for that whole scenario by saying there's one author. 790 00:51:15.170 --> 00:51:17.510 There's a direction for the bible and it 791 00:51:18.050 --> 00:51:23.030 points to Jesus. And as we walk through it, everything points to Jesus. Right? 792 00:51:23.505 --> 00:51:24.224 And then, 793 00:51:24.704 --> 00:51:26.964 yeah. So it's all good.
